ODD TRANQUILITY IN NORTHERN AVENUE

Politics

Northern Avenue was strangely calm today. It seems yesterday’s incident between the police and protesters didn’t even take place.

Random passers-by were unaware of the recent clash. There was no policeman in sight even at Liberty Square.

We inquired from a middle-aged woman sitting on a bench if she was aware of yesterday’s events.

“The authorities’ silence implies they are either planning something awful or they believe such incidents will not repeat,” said the woman.

Reminder: yesterday night six citizens went on a hunger-strike on Northern Avenue demanding the release of the political prisoners. At about 10 p.m. the police illegally clamped down on the presentees and forced the protesters off the avenue. They chained the avenue denying people’s access.
